When it came to covering the hefty hotel bill for Wu and his roughly 50 colleagues, the lawmaker said he relied on money from his chamber’s Democratic Caucus. Now Texas Democrats are pleading […]

Trump’s claim that undocumented workers are ‘naturally’ fit for farm labor harkens to racist theory about enslaved Blacks

President Donald Trump on Tuesday remarked that undocumented workers are “naturally” suited for farm labor, sparking outrage and evoking long-debunked racist theories about Black and Brown people being better at outdoor labor because of their physiological makeup. “You can’t replace them very easily,” Trump said of undocumented immigrants working on farms during an interview with CNBC. “You know, people that live in the inner city are not doing that work.

Anderson Clayton wanted a headline name to speak at North Carolina Democrats’ summer gala — but the state party chair bypassed familiar Capitol Hill figures, looking instead to Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker. She described him as “a real fighter” against President Donald Trump, someone who gets things done because he actually controls levers of government — unlike any Democrat in Washington. “I wanted people to hear from one of the Democratic governors who has defended their state, who could look at the […]
